Manchester United in negotiations with club over loan deal for Cristiano Ronaldo

Posted by

Sporting Lisbon are reportedly in negotiations to sign Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo. 

Ronaldo finished last season as Manchester United’s top goalscorer, but it wasn’t enough to help the club finish in the Champions League places.

Understandably, for a player like Ronaldo, this has frustrated him, and he could be on his way out this summer.

According to Sport TV (via Daily Mirror), Sporting Lisbon are exploring the possibility of signing Ronaldo on loan.

Ronaldo’s car has also reportedly been spotted in the Sporting Lisbon stadium, as seen in the picture below, uploaded by the Daily Mirror.

Ronaldo started his professional career at Sporting, before earning himself a move to Manchester United.

A loan move may not suit Manchester United, with Ronaldo’s contract expiring next year. If he leaves the club on a temporary deal, he would eventually leave on a free transfer next summer.

However, any interested club are unlikely to pay a hefty transfer fee to sign the Portuguese striker, due to the fact he is 37 years old and won’t have too long left at the highest level.

  1. Ronaldo and others all famous players are greedy they only play fir money
    1990 to 2003 era player Only play football they love their club, they love to play for Their country also
    Now days Ronaldo, Messi both are greedy and hunger FOR money no matter how many they have already its shame dont like this disgusted players

  2. Why is ronaldo wanting to leave united only having done one season when he agreed on a 2 year contract we thought he loved the club.he left over 12 years ago why cant he see out his 2 years at the club

    1. Because mate!! He wants to play Champions League pure and simple. Mixing it with the best. Europa league is crap. He doesn’t want Messi and Lewandowski encroaching on his goal tally!!! It’s not about being disloyal to Man U… get that through ya scull

  3. any player who does not want to be at Manchester United
    should leave. Bye Bye Christiano

    AND any player who does not want to play with Manchester United after their club has sold them should stay where
    they are. bye bye DeJong

  4. Why can’t players fulfill.the contracts they sign? Attitude should be to help make team better. Not me, me, me. You sign a contract you fulfill it. Otherwise a contract is a useless piece of paper. I like Ronaldo, the best player ever but the selfish attitude has to stop.

  5. There are two clear things here. Ronaldo loves United but still, wants to play the Champions League…Remember his record is unmatched there and he would love to be playing in that prestigious competition which United can’t offer at the moment. It’s not about money or betrayal but it’s about the biggest club tournament in Europe. Good luck to him anyway. United will cope and still thrive.

  6. Should I say, he is not selfish at all, scoring 24 goals and not welcomed by fellow team mates, no option than to look for a place where every body will work together for a single purpose CL. He loves Man Unit till tomorrow and we love him dearly. We support your CL records, please go keep the records. Bravo CR7

  7. Man united is Ronaldo’s father therefore he should play until his contract expires.
